NJHS UPDATE

An Update from your National Junior Honor Society Advisors:

For current 8th grade NJHS members who met their service hour requirement and maintained a 3.5 or higher GPA, members will be receiving their NJHS pins. Fall inductees will receive both their pin and their official certificate. These items will be shared with NJHS members, along with promotion certificates at a date to be determined by Mrs. Heck and Mr. Strobel.

Due to the unusual circumstances we are facing this spring, we have decided to delay the NJHS application process for all 7th grade students. This will allow all students to have a fair chance to gather hours once opportunities open up again. Current 7th grade students who have a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher will be considered in the fall. NJHS invitations will go out after Quarter 1 ends.

If you have any questions, please email Mrs. Laura Lindberg or Mrs. Mary Krien.

GIRLS BASKETBALL

7/8 GIRLS BASKETBALL: Please return your GAME jerseys to the main office. Please put the jersey in a bag, attach your name to it and drop it off at the school between 9:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.

CHROMEBOOK PROBLEMS ???
